Field data TPRO blocks 1E and 23 Block 1E Grafted with new cultivars in Aug 2011. Block 23 Grafted with new cultivars Aug 2010. Psa progression on Hort16A, Bruce and Sparkler, little to no development on Gold 3, Gold 9 and Green 14.
Disease progression trials Mike Manning and Ian Horner Now completed 2 rounds in three orchards. Initial monitoring found a low incidence of leaf spotting and very low incidence of wilt and shoot dieback. Further monitoring two weeks later showed a slight increase in symptoms and analysis is currently underway. Monitoring of Hayward is underway and will provide a comparative baseline.
